  • Monitor financial performance, identifying trends and risks, and proactively recommending solutions.
  • Lead or contribute to key initiatives, including system implementations and process enhancements.

About You

You’re a commercially minded finance professional with a passion for driving change and delivering results. You combine deep technical expertise with excellent communication skills and thrive in environments where collaboration and innovation are key.

Key Qualifications and Skills:
  • ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualified with at least 5 years of post-qualification experience.
  • A strong background in financial analysis, management reporting, or business partnering.
  • Proven ability to influence stakeholders at all levels, including non-financial managers.
  • Commercially astute, with a track record of driving performance improvement.
  • Advanced Excel and financial modelling skills; experience with BI tools is a bonus.
  • A self-starter with a proactive approach to problem-solving and decision-making.
  • Experience in sectors such as retail, FMCG, or manufacturing is desirable but not essential.

What’s In It For You?

We believe in rewarding talent and hard work. Here’s what we offer:

  • A competitive salary and performance-based bonus structure.
  • Clear progression opportunities in a fast-growing business.
  • Flexible and hybrid working arrangements.
  • A collaborative, forward-thinking team culture.
